[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been hate watching AJLT and then decided to rewatch SATC on netflix from the beginning. While there are many things about SATC that don't hold up very well (you could argue that they were off-putting from the start), that show is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better.  They really need to put AJLT out of our misery.  [/quote]

The thing is, it's SO MUCH better than the absolutely horrific first season of AJLT.  And yet it's so, so bad.

A podcast I listen to blames the writer's room for not having anyone in their actual 50s/60s writing for the show.  If these women were in their 40s, ok maybe some of their nonsense might make some sense but it just does not hang together.

Also, these are amazingly wealthy women who try to pretend they are not (when the inane story calls for it) except for sometimes, when they do want us to know they go to private events at Tiffany's.  A writer's room where the writers are also coming to terms with the latter part of their careers, or thinknig about legacy, or the next chapter of their lives (and no, Miranda's career storyline is so stupid I can't even remember most of it) could have humor and heart.  I can maybe buy that Seema has to pull back a little but her whole idiocy of saving money on salons and nonsense - it's so unrealistic.  give us a full picture of her life, not just I can't have a driver and now have eye infections.  Or have the cheaper lash guy be abolsutely fabulous and she elevates them.  Just come on.  Show her as downfall in her 60s due to be too trusting in a male dominated industry (and then fighting back) or show her as a smart accomlished career woman who takes advantage of her new circumstances.  Just don't try to mealy mouth stupidity through both scenarios simultaneously. [/quote]
